Cleanliness

Z. Rahman, Gulshan-1, Dhaka
BBC in its world news of 19th July, 2009(BDST-0700Hrs) stated that Allan Brigham who dedicated his time for three decades to keep Cambridge city clean had been awarded an honorary degree by the university of Cambridge. Such honour was said to have been only meant for great people like Bill Gates & similar personalities in the past. Perhaps Rotary International & Lions club operating in Bangladesh for many social-uplifts/ humanitarian services may consider to undertake drives to create awareness among us to clean up Dhaka city and change its current status from being one among a few dirty places on earth. This will be a most significant contribution and likely to cost nothing compared to many high-value projects executed for eradication of dreadful diseases as well as improvement of health/ hygiene throughout the developing countries.
